2017 Citroen C3 1.2L Petrol · KW66 MJY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy having passed its most recent MOT on 14 May 2026 at 74,526 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in attention to consumable components. While the car maintained clean records through 2023 and 2024, the last two tests indicate a recurring failure to address tyre condition, suggesting a shift toward less proactive maintenance regarding rubber components despite the vehicle passing without major mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per year. Between the April 2024 test at 65,745 miles and the May 2025 test at 72,669 miles, the car covered nearly 7,000 miles, followed by another 1,857 miles prior to the most recent inspection. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use which generally prevents the internal engine and brake seal issues associated with long periods of standing. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of all four tyres. The recurring advisories for perishing and cracking across all axles in both 2025 and 2026 indicate the rubber is reaching the end of its structural life regardless of tread depth. The 2025 failure for an inoperative registration plate lamp is a minor electrical fault, but it highlights that basic exterior checks may have been overlooked by the previous owner. Since no structural corrosion or suspension-related faults have appeared in the history, the focus remains on age-related degradation of tyres and the general condition of the underwork.
